"Block timetabling" with increased instructional time for Mathematics, Science, Language Arts and Social Studies A Modified School Calendar that provides families with a unique scheduling alternative Donnan's Division III Physical Education program is designed to offer students more experiences than a traditional Physical Education course. The idea behind the program is to try to connect all students to at least one activity that they feel they could do and enjoy for the rest of their life. The timetable at Donnan is designed so that a full afternoon of Physical Education is offered twice per week. This schedule allows the Physical Education classes to go off site for many of the activities. The students are transported to many of the community facilities where they receive high level instruction from qualified instructors. Some of the activities include: Canoeing Many of the activities have been chosen because they are life long activites that students can access through community leagues or clubs outside the school environment. |
